I’m teaching in Paris and I have the same problem: at the university, no many for Max/Msp/Jitter licences.

I wish and hope that PD had segmented patch cords soon.

yeah that is what I was thinking. I am an experienced Jitter user that the Uni I am teaching at does not have the money for the licenses. <br><br>Jitter has always been my standby for many projects but I  think PD will work for this class next semester.

<div style=""><div>Well, Ive used both, I use Jitter pretty much exclusively. I suggest using PD Extended to help with the install, GEM is nice and fast for most things, but is more suited to 3D (GEM is a wrapper for OpenGL, not video exclusively, so inherits some of that in its design), than to video per se. Its video effects are (maybe be?) somewhat limiting, but it does support shaders (despite some issues), but not stream processing (at least, no one has shown an example of that just yet, and whats been tried has not worked), so building sets of effects that arent out of box accelerated on the GPU may be of some issue - if you want to go that route.
